PLSP...Camp OUT:) FALL BREAK

SNAKES...

So, I saw my first snake at Paris Landing State Park and I am pretty sure I broke two major snake safety rules...Do not scream...Do not run.  And then David broke the king daddy rule...Do not take your toddler in their wagon over to the ditch it slithered into looking for it after your wife has broken the two rules.  Men...eh??!!

CAMPER TIME...

Eating her favorite thing....a Shanwitch:)


TREASURE HUNTING...

Chloe Jo's favorite thing to do is search for treasures.  On Friday, we took the wagon and went in search of anything interesting.  On Saturday, we took the wagon again and went in search of even more treasures.  Pretty cool that this kept her occupied on our camping trip.  She selected each "treasure" carefully and for a reason.  Thought I would share...

 FUN TIMES AT PLSP (Paris Landing State Park)








THE HELP...

I finished reading this over the weekend...it was great!  I found myself laughing out loud on many occasions.  I hope the movie doesn't disappoint me.  These characters are in my head a certain way...sometimes the movie ruins it for me.  This is a MUST read. 

It made me remember Richie...she helped clean for my grandparents when I was a kid.  She called me "Honey Chile".  I remember taking her fish after DaddyDoyle had a big catch...it was a house up a steep hill off the court square in Dresden.  My grandad always wanted her to ride in the front seat of his Cadillac when we took her home but she never would.  The thought of it makes me really sad.  My family loved her very much.

We are just two people.  Not that much separates us.  Not nearly as much as I'd thought.
-my favorite part


GETTING READY FOR HALLOWEEN...












WHAT A DREAM...

I have to share this, I guess.  Mostly because I can count on two fingers the times since Chloe Jo was born that I slept so good that I dreamed.  I would hate for anyone to interpret this deam...because it might mean I truly am crazy.  Remember this is totally fiction.

SO, Aaron, David's cousin, arrives at our house and drives backward into Mrs. Robbie's swingset across the road.  He is slumped in his truck and David gets him over to our house and he is sitting on our couch...still slumped.  (totally out of it...but I do not have an explanation) ha

Anyways, back to this crazy dream...he starts to come up to Chloe Jo and I yell at him that I will break him in half and then I actually trip him...which leads to him slumping over again.  I get on the phone to call Paige and he overhears me telling her I think he must be wasted or something.  (JUST REMINDING YOU THAT THIS IS FICTION...NONE OF IT IS TRUE OR EVEN MAKES SENSE)

He goes to his truck and gets a "sawed off shot gun"...and cocks it and fires into the air...then he yells<in his voice like the dude on the movie Open Season>..."I'm about to split you another ponytail!"  ( I have never heard anyone say that so why would that just come to me in my dream???)  So, David has to shoot him in the leg...I am yelling all of this to Paige on my phone...then I wake up and spend the next several minutes trying to talk to myself that this really is not happening!  haha 

So, maybe it is a good thing I do not dream too much.  I have always had very vivid and crazy dreams!  I hope Aaron and Paige find humor in this crazy story.  I will apologize now because I can hear "Ernie" when he reads this saying..."GAWWWWWW!"

One more day of Fall Break..I will post pics of my fall scene that David and Chloe Jo helped me almost finish...we need mums:) 

Happy Fall, friends!
